Even when on the field, they can easily locate nearby doctors, drugstores using POI (Point of Interest) locations. It saves time, plus can cover more leads for maximum results.

Heatmaps are one of the most effective methods to find out if your field activities are working or not in the targeted areas. In the Dynamics 365 Heat Visualization Tool, you can easily find out if your sales are up to the mark, which areas need more attention, etc. By pointing which are the areas that need the most attention, you can improve the activities for more business.

Proximity Search

In cases of emergencies, or if the doctor is not available for a meeting, a medical representative can find out other doctors in their selected proximity and check if they are available for a meeting or not.

Keep Track of Meetings
